Chapter 73: Angry Justin

"Julia, I’m in a hurry. I have an important late-night meeting to attend. I came here just to pick you up. Please hurry downstairs. I’ll meet your friend another time," Justin’s impatient voice echoed from the other side.

"You’re always so busy," Julia huffed. "Alright, I’m coming."

She turned to Albert, "I have to leave now. My grandson is waiting for me downstairs. But I’ll make sure to visit again, and hopefully next time, I’ll meet your grandson-in-law."

Albert and Natalie nodded, while Andrew stood up as well. "I’ll head out too."

"Let me come downstairs to meet your grandson," Albert said, rising from his seat.

"G-Grandpa," Natalie quickly interjected, "you just took your medicine a little while ago. It makes you drowsy, and I’m worried you might collapse."

"She’s right, Albert," Andrew added swiftly, trying to save Justin from being caught. "You can meet him some other time."

With everyone insisting, Albert finally agreed and stayed back.

As soon as Julia left, Natalie sighed in relief. "Grandpa, you haven’t rested since noon. You should get some sleep now."

Albert truly felt tired so he didn’t deny. As Natalie walked him to his room, he continued, "Make sure to check on Aiden and see when he’ll be home. It’s not good to work too much."

"Yes, Grandpa."

"And you’ve saved some food for him, haven’t you?"
